Yeah I cheated, Deal wit it :P

[Ronnyboy]

Bite me :P

[benji4138]

Damn that's awesome :D Pretty sure anyone would love to take this for a few laps around a track

Too bad we can only guess what's been done to the engine

[Zeinheiger]

Maybe the huge front mount may give an idea to what's happening in regards to it's performance

[Seby123]

do silver! i cant decide on a set of rims maybe you can hook me up with a nice design i can use lol

[Synthetic05]

I like the design you make for the grill on the car, looks sick!

The grille design was pretty much the same off the Camry I did a week ago, minus the red 'go fast' bits

[johnnieboi]

Man, your work is pretty impressive. Should start a little side business. Im sure many car enthusiasts would pay for you to do your artwork on their cars.

[Zeinheiger]

Funny you mention that, I had been doing that as a bit of work on the side, I worked doing designs for a company based in Sweden for a few months, but the money was crap and the guy who gave me the instructions on what his clients needed had poor English, they were called Potential race direct or something like that who built/designed racecars for clients who were sponsored, too bad I can't share those pics because I legally gave those ownership rights to their customers and the company, I did well over 50 designs though...

But if anyone wants me to do them one, feel free to PM me and we can work out a deal... I've never been too sure on how valuable my skills are in regards to how much I should charge, but with a TOCAU discount... 20 dollars?

Should check his website out. It's a very generous discount :) Shotgun first, although I'm thinking I'll need to shovel out more than $20 as I'd be looking at a couple of diff pics to try and figure out what would look best/ which direction to take :D

[Zeinheiger]

Daryl shotgunned before the rest of you, if I said I'd do it for free you can understand that I'd have about 50 people asking... And I have paypal if anyone wants to do it that way... And whoa I'm already building up a queue

[Zeinheiger]

And I think 20 dollars is fair for 7-8 hours of my time, that's not even 3 dollars an hour, slave labour rates....

[DJKOR]

Guys, I think you should at least be paying Dale $50 per rendering for you. Even that amount seems low to me, but realistically, he is taking up his spare time to do these things and he deserves to make some (tax free ;) ) profit from it. I would then suggest to be generous and tip him some more, but I guess it's down to where you stand in terms of appreciating his works.

Edit: I would direct deposit as well because doesn't PayPal charge withdrawal fees?

x2 to what D said, Dale is VERY talented so i think the going rate should be $50 at the very minimum.

[benji4138]

No worries Daryl can have the first one :) Yeh I couldn't believe seeing the $20 for the charging of such fine work. I was happy with the $50 mentioned on the site, just for one picture :) And I'd get more than one pic ;) Same with my mate whose an accountant. I'll get him to do my tax this year, but I'm still going to pay him at the proper rate. Someone taking their own time to put in a professional finish should be paid accordingly :D

[Zeinheiger]

Just to say, I did almost fall off my chair with what daryl is offering me. I'm not gonna talk figures, but it was extremely generous. But in all honesty I'm happy with 20 dollars a pic, up to you guys if you wanna tip extra, I won't complain :P

And btw, all profits from these drawings go straight into my modifications account... Yes I have one. Putting a little away each week to give Alexia some style and credentials

Thanks guys

[SecaBoy]

personally, you're doing yourself a great disfavour by charging only $20...

you're work is worth a lot more and you're selling yourself short man.

i even think $50 is too little for art... yes, i said the "a" word on a car forum...

if you think about it... how much do people pay for paintings?

anyway... i'm keen to get one done of all my previous cars...

PM me and we can work something out, may not be till next week sometime, I'm working on Daryls beast atm

I hope he doesn't mind, but here's a quick preview, it'll be up to him what he wants to do with the final render...

And just keep in mind, this is a very rough sketch in it's early stages, I have yet to finalise the sketch and start rendering, there's a few bits and pieces that don't sit right that i'll need to adjust, but you get the idea of the stance I'll be using

But if anyone else wants something done, PM me, this is a first in first out basis

[Ronnyboy]

I agree - i dont think theres anyone here that doesnt appreciate your work Dale :D

I need to take some pics of my car, ill PM you once ive taken them :)

Im pretty sure there is withdrawal charge on Paypal but im not sure what it is.......

[DJKOR]

I can't believe you would call that a rough sketch Dale. It's already starting to come together nicely. I certainly lack a lot of artistic ability

Edit: Daaaamnn. I now want to put some deep dish rims on my TRD and add some negative camber.

[Zeinheiger]

Stop guys you're making me blush :P

[VF-X]

Dish + Concave is the new black..

That's a sketch..? All I need now is a printer and some colouring pencils.

I'll make a colouring book just for you

Just make sure you colour in between the lines :P

[johnnieboi]

Will keep in touch Dale. A few of us will definitely be interested. Think i'll blow mine up and print it out A2 size, put in on my wall. :D
